This week I built out the login flow end to end — adding the login form with email validation, wiring it up to the auth API, fixing the post-login redirect, and styling the page.

About this tool

When someone asks "what did you work on this week," your commit history has the answer buried in a dozen terse lines. This tool reads a list of commits and summarizes the overall work into a short paragraph you can drop into a standup update, a status report, or a weekly summary. Instead of grouping into a changelog, it steps back and describes the arc of what got done — useful for reporting progress to people who don't read git logs.

Frequently asked questions

Who is this summary written for?+

A human audience like a manager or team standup — it describes the work narratively rather than listing each commit.

How is this different from the changelog tool?+

The changelog groups changes into categorized entries; this produces a flowing progress summary for status updates.

Can I summarize a whole sprint?+

Yes — paste the full range of commits and it will summarize the overall themes of the work rather than every detail.
